Reborn Noble Daughter and First Wife

Chapter 20 You Are Too Smart

After entering the second gate of Shizi Mansion, Gu Qinglian began to feel dizzy.A bunch of grandmas, ladies and ladies, kept saluting and smiling, her face was almost frozen with laughter.

Gu Qinglian was holding down her impatience when suddenly she heard someone shouting: "The concubine is here!"

The Lord is finally here!Gu Qinglian and other low-ranking female relatives got up together to welcome the crown prince.

The eldest concubine's boudoir name is Zhu Wanrong, and she is small and exquisite. At the age of eighteen or nineteen, she wears a red dress full of gold embroidered with hundreds of butterflies, a dignified peony bun, and a set of oriental beads inlaid with diamonds on her head. The brilliance is shining, the complexion is compelling, very beautiful and elegant.

The female relatives of each family took turns to greet each other.When it was the Shen family's turn, Mrs. Shen naturally presented the birthday gift on behalf of the Shen family, and Shen Congjin also gave the Shizi Concubine a round fan embroidered by herself.Gu Qinglian also gave the painting screen in a regular manner. Although it is not brilliant, it is also very decent.

Ruyi was in a hurry, and while no one was paying attention, she whispered to Gu Qinglian: "Young Mistress, are you going to give away the high-heeled shoes you made?"

Gu Qinglian smiled: "I'll talk about it later."

Giving high heels in front of so many people, isn't it obvious that people will pay attention to the height of the princess!Gu Qinglian is not stupid, of course she would not do such a slap in the face.

The gifts for everyone have been delivered, and the tea and snacks are almost eaten, and the concubine Shizi has brought people to go to the front to watch the stage.

Gu Qinglian took the delicate brocade burden from Ruyi's hand, walked behind Zhu Wanrong, and said with a low laugh: "Concubine Gu Qinglian, I have seen the concubine."

Zhu Wanrong had seen Gu Qinglian when she was saluting just now, and she had an impression of her. Seeing her coming to salute, she stopped and accepted the salute, and said with a smile, "Your sister, you want to follow me to see the stage?"

Seeing the gentleness and politeness of the concubine, Gu Qinglian felt a little good in her heart, and said with a smile: "No, I have a gift, I forgot it just now, and I want to give it to you now."

"What gift?" Zhu Wanrong didn't take it seriously, she was a royal concubine, what good things hadn't been seen before?
Gu Qinglian saw that Zhu Wanrong's maids were all around her, so she stopped hiding and opened the brocade burden: "The concubine made a pair of shoe covers, and I want to give it to the concubine Shizi."

Shoe covers?Seeing that pair of strange and unfamiliar shoe covers, Zhu Wanrong was a little stunned, she had never seen them before!
Gu Qinglian was not restrained, and asked with a smile: "Concubine Shizi, how about I help you try it on?"

Zhu Wanrong was very curious, and took Gu Qinglian into the small side hall next to the flower hall.

Gu Qinglian dismissed a few maids and mothers, and only kept a few close servants, instructing them to help Zhu Wanrong put on high-heeled shoe covers.

When Zhu Wanrong grew eight centimeters taller and held Gu Qinglian's hand with a smile on her face, she knew that she had succeeded!

This gift was truly delivered to the heart of the Crown Princess!

The mothers and maids around her kept praising: "The Concubine Shi Zi puts on these shoe covers, she is much taller, and she is even more charming!"

Zhu Wanrong stepped on the high heels and walked back and forth several times before someone took them off.

"Your gift is very suitable for me. I want to give you a reward. What do you want?" Zhu Wanrong looked at Gu Qinglian with a smile.

Gu Qinglian did not expect that the ancient imperial concubine could speak so directly, it almost made her a little embarrassed to play tricks on her.

Pretending to ponder for a while, Gu Qinglian smiled and said: "The begonias in the concubine's yard are just in bloom. If the concubine really wants to reward the concubine, go sit in the concubine's yard and have a cup of tea!"

Zhu Wanrong was a little surprised, she didn't expect that Gu Qinglian's request was to invite her to be a guest.

It's not a difficult task, she readily agreed: "That's fine, I haven't gone out for quite a while, too. It's fine to go out and walk around."

Great!Everything is going according to plan!Gu Qinglian smiled sincerely this time: "Then the concubine welcomes the imperial concubine!"

Watching the back of the concubine Shizi leading people away, Gu Qinglian smiled brightly.

Ruyi hasn't come to her senses yet, she looked at Gu Qinglian suspiciously: "Young Mistress, why are you so happy?"

Gu Qinglian pinched her face: "Concubine Shizi is going to visit me in the mansion, and enjoy begonias with me. Do you think Madam will let me continue to live in the side courtyard?"

"Ah! Young Mistress, you are so smart!" Ruyi finally realized, and couldn't help admiring Gu Qinglian: "For the sake of saving face, madam will definitely let you move back to Haitang Garden!"

Gu Qinglian smiled like a cat stealing a fish: "Come on, let's go for a walk in the garden! The flower hall is too boring!"

These ancient ladies are very dull, and Gu Qinglian really has nothing in common with them.Might as well go to the garden!
